The lawyer said that on April 27 Spencer changed the lock on the couple’s apartment in lower fifth avenue, told the housekeeper not to let his wife in, and then went Wisconsin where he had the diyorce papers prepared. He said Spencer was back in this city on May 2.

The information became available in connection with the double anni- versary today of King Alphonso’s birth 41 years ago and his formal assumption of the throne 25 years ago. Alphonso was proclaimed king on the day of his birth, May 17, 1885, under the regency of This mother, his father having died the previous Noyember. On May 17, 1802, the regency ended and Al- phonso became king in fact as well as in name. King Alphonso will visit North and South America as soon as it is politically possible for him to do so, it was said here. Government con- firmation added that unless some- thing unforeseen occurs, the king will depart for the new world in 1920, probably ' accompanied by Premier Primo de Rivera, if the lat- | ter were still in power. Material means for the trip have been under discussion for some time. It has been suggested that a sea |squadron of 49 vessels be built to escort the Xking. Each Spanish province would Taise funds by cele- brations, bull fights and tombolas to build one ship which would carry the nams of the provifice. struction of 49 ships would greatly remedy the current labor crisis. A fiftieth vessel would be constructed with funds provided by Spaniards living in North and South America. That vessel, to be named America, would bear the king and his partv. Many details remained to be con- !sidered, for instance the appoint- {ment of some kind of regency dur- ing the king's absence. King Al- i phonso's desire to go is undeniable. He recently was quoted as having said “America, spiritually, is a prolongation of Spain.” The king would have visited the new werld long ago, probably 920, bug was obliged to cancel his ans because of domestic consider- | 000,000 LOAN Lisbon, Ma 1 (UP)—The Portu- &u government today lieved to be considering negotiation of a § )0,000 loan in New York.
